3D-printed and injection molded polymer matrix composites with 2D layered materials
This article reports on a study where 2D TMDs (MoS₂ and WS₂) and the 3D allotrope of carbon and graphite were incorporated into acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) matrices in order to form polymer matrix composites (PMCs). The multipronged analysis described in this study was motivated by the purpose to fuse together topics of low-cost, additive manufacturing with 2D layered materials, and studying their ensuing mechanical and tribological properties.
Cache-Aided General Linear Function Retrieval
This article designs a novel coded caching scheme that outperforms uncoded caching schemes that either use unicast transmissions or let each user recover all files in the library. It extends the scope of the authors’ past work that only considered the class of linear functions that operate element-wise over the files.
Eficiência de um sistema piloto de dessalinização de água salobra
Article describes study which sought to evaluate the efficiency of pilot water desalination system treating brackish water which was obtained mixing fresh water and seawater up to reach 1,500 mg L-1 of total dissolved solids (TDS) concentration.
Embedded Corrosion Sensing with ZnO-PVDF Sensor Textiles
Article investigating a non-conductive sensor textile as a viable solution for corrosion in underground and submerged steel pipes. The results offer a new option for sub-surface corrosion sensing using low cost, easily fabricated sensor textiles.
Fabrication and characterization of inkjet-printed 2D perovskite optoelectronic devices
Article presents the large scale synthesis of solution-processed 2D (CH₃(CH₂)₃NH₃)₂(CH₃NH₃)ₙ − 1PbₙI₃ₙ + 1 (n = 2, 3, and 4) perovskites, a family of layered compounds with composition-tunable bandgap, where inkjet printing was used to fabricate heterostructure, flexible photodetector devices. The flexible, inkjet-printed perovskite 2D heterostructures have significant potential for optoelectronic devices, which can enable broad possibilities with compositional tunability and versatility of the organohalide perovskites.

Inks of dielectric h-BN and semiconducting WS₂ for capacitive structures with graphene
This article presents dispersions of WS₂ and h-BN using cyclohexanone and terpineol as the solvent to subsequently print prototype capacitive nanodevices.
Light–matter interactions in two-dimensional layered tungsten diselenide for gauging evolution of phonon dynamics
Article exploring phonon dynamics in mechanically exfoliated two-dimensional WSe₂ using temperature-dependent and laser-power-dependent Raman and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The work reported sheds fundamental insights into the evolution of phonon dynamics in WSe₂ and should help pave the way for designing high-performance electronic, optoelectronic and thermoelectric devices in the future.
Modeling and Characterization of Scaling Factor of Flexible Spiral Coils for Wirelessly Powered Wearable Sensors
This article presents the design, modeling, and experimental characterization of flexible square-shaped spiral coils with different scaling factors for WPT systems. The effects of coil scaling factor on inductance, capacitance, resistance, and the quality factor (Q-factor) are modeled, simulated, and experimentally validated for the case of flexible planar coils. This article also presents the effect of skin contact with the flexible coil in terms of the power transfer efficiency (PTE) to validate the suitability as a wearable sensor.
Sol-gel synthesized indium tin oxide as a transparent conducting oxide with solution-processed black phosphorus for its integration into solar-cells
This article describes the synthesis of indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films using solgel processing with a mixture of InCl₃, methanol, and SnCl₂, where the solutions were spin coated onto glass substrates. The combined architecture of black phosphorus on ITO thin films shows promise in its use for transparent electronics, which can also serve as a stepping stone for future solar cell platforms.
